    Esther

    18

    At hi, qui in urbe Susan cædem exercuerant, tertiodecimo et quartodecimo die ejusdem mensis in cæde versati sunt: quintodecimo autem die percutere desierunt. Et idcirco eumdem diem constituerunt solemnem epularum atque lætitiæ.

    But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.

    Sed hoc, qui in urbe de Susan exerce caede, tertiodecimo et quartadecima die de idem de mense in caede versa es: quintadecima autem die percute desina. Et ergo eumde die constitue solvemne de epulas et de laetitia.
